Questions:
1. The type of acceleration that resulted when a constant unbalanced force acts on a mass acts
on it was uniform acceleration
2. The acceleration would also double if the force acting on it doubled.
3. The relationship between an object’s acceleration and the unbalanced force acting on it is
that they are proportional to one another. This means that if one increases the other must
also increase.
4. If the mass of an object is doubled, but the unbalanced force acting on it remains constant,
the acceleration would be halved.
